Testimonials from Clients:

"I had two estate sales done by Karen and Sue in September, 2014. They are uniquely capable, professional and precise in their marketing and sales approach. Their interpersonal skills are superb, plus they are innately nice people. I give them the highest recommendation." Dr. Don M., Cleburne, TX

"We recently downsized our home from 4100 to 1900 square feet. Formidable task you think, which it was . . . but we were so fortunate in having chosen Heirloom Estate Sales to help us with this task. Sue, Karen and their team were very professional, hard-working and had a caring commitment which surpassed our expectations. This life-altering decision to downsize could not have happened without the experience of Heirloom Estate Sales, and we highly recommend their services. We are delighted!" Gail, Woody & Muffy, Fort Worth, TX

"I highly recommend Heirloom Estate Sales. They did my elderly parents estate sale which required moving a full household of items to another sale location. They did a turn-key service with full accounting that included estate sale, donation of items, and disposal of remaining items. I needed the premises to be completely emptied on short notice, and they did a great job. Sue and Karen are very professional, efficient and considerate. They gave the task a personal touch. Most importantly, they handled all aspects and freed me from worry and involvement. It was a wonderful experience and I thank them so much." Roger D., Architect, Fort Worth, TX

"I had a great experience with Heirloom Estate Sales in June, 2015. They handled the estate sale for my mother's house in an efficient, professional manner. Karen and Sue did exactly what they said they would do, when they said they would do it. We were able to turn it all over to them with confidence that it would be taken care of by people who cared about what they were handling." Ken M., Attorney, Fort Worth, TX
